Earlier, through an Instagram post, 'Secret Superstar' actress announced her 'disassociation' from acting in Bollywood. She stated that her current line of work is silently and unconsciously transitioned her "out of imaan (faith)". Following this, certain media outlets quoted the actor's manager as claiming that her social media accounts were hacked.
Earlier today, her manager Tuhin Mishra, during a telephonic conversation with ANI, also clarified that the post about quitting acting as it interfered in her religion was, in fact, shared by the actor herself.
"No, we never said that. The post has been put up by Zaira, that's it. We have never said anything like that," Mishra asserted.
